Lake Waukewan, nestled in the heart of New Hampshire's scenic Lakes Region, is known for its clear waters and year-round activities. This 928-acre lake is situated in Meredith and New Hampton, with the town of Center Harbor gracing part of its northern shoreline. The lake's historical significance is rooted in its early 1800s dam construction, which originally served to power local industry. Today, the dam plays a crucial role in controlling the water levels of not only Lake Waukewan but also the connected water systems.
Fun Fact: In Meredith's early days, the water rights of Measly Pond Brook, which drained Lake Waukewan into Lake Winnipesaukee, were utilized to power a gristmill and sawmill in the village. This contributed to the area's development as a mill town.
